Faculty and Staff Mail Delivery Information

Faculty
and staff receive mail two times per day. Offices on the main campus
receive mail between 8:00-10:00 AM and 12:00-2:00
PM. Offices located on East Campus and off-campus houses receive their mail between
10:00-11:30 AM and 2:00-3:00 PM. Mail should be placed in the "mailbag" located
in your office. If you have a large mailing, please contact the campus
post office at 66903 to make arrangements to have it picked up.

Please separate all on and off-campus mail. This prevents
us from affixing postage to letters designed to remain on campus. Just
paperclip or rubber band any on-campus letters together.

Please separate international mail from domestic (US) mail.
International mail requires additional postage. Due to increased security
measures, any international piece that weighs more than 1 pound needs to have a
customs form attached to the mailpiece.

When using inter-departmental mail envelopes, please use the
department in which the person works. DONOT use building and room
numbers. We have no idea who is in what room. For example, use Dr.
Janet Dudley-Eshbach President's Office- Not HH 230.

Off-campus letters( regular sized #10 envelopes) that need to be
sealed should have flaps up (nested). Tuck each letter's flap inside the
next one. Our machine can seal and stamp the letters at the same time.

All flats should be sealed when they are received at the SU Post
Office (SUPO). Because of the thickness and the location of the flap, it
needs to sealed securely. Sometimes a small piece of tape or a clasp will
not do an effective job.

Our last mail pickup by the USPS (United States Postal
Service) each day is 2:30 PM. Anything received in our office
afterwards gets postmarked and sent out the following day. If
something is urgent and you can't make it here by 2:30, we can postmark
it for you and you can take it to the USPS yourself.

We only offer services that are provided by the USPS. We
offer priority mail(2-3 days), certifiedmail, delivery
confirmation, & insured mail. We also sell
stamps both individually and in books. We do not offer money
orders! We also do not offer FED EX, UPS, Airborne or any other
carrier. These services are provided by either the Accounts Payable office in HH or at Central Receiving on Bateman St across from the track.

Fed Ex and UPS packages are
handled a bit differently. All recipients are called when
receiving a Fed Ex/UPS package. The item is logged in and the
person indicates whether he/she would like the package delivered
or if he/she will pick up. Packages that are too big for the
mailbags will be sent over to Support Services for delivery.

Other suggestions:

- Try not to wait until Friday to get a huge or
bulk mail out before the weekend. I can't guarantee that we can process it
in time for that day's pickup.

- When using the generic SU envelopes, write your name or
dept. as part of the return address. When these envelopes come back, I or
my staff have to open them to route them correctly and there may some important
confidential information contained inside.

- Our meter is for Salisbury University business use
only. We don't provide postage for personal mail in a SU envelope i.e.
Comcast, Verizon, Visa, etc.
